Configuration File

Each FASTQ or FASTQ pair will have an associated config.json file that holds information like which plots to draw into which tabs and where the associated data files reside. Each entry must have a tab_name, `filename, and chart_properties specific to the chart type. For more information on individual plots and their requirements, see their respective pages.

Tab Status

This is an optional icon for page tabs and supports values of pass, fail, or warn. It’s rendered as:

Plot Options

The configuration of plots themselves occurs within the chart_properties key. Individual plot options are defined in the docs under each plot type.

Manual Editing

Plots can edited and plot data can be added manually to a particular sample’s config.json. If you’re adding a new sample manually, you will have to add it to groups.json.
